It’s not even Christmas, but Justin Bieber has a present for you. No guarantee that you’ll love it (unless you picked up his My Worlds Acoustic disc in 2010 — but then there were enough of you to make that disc go platinum, so the odds are good).

Here goes: Justin Bieber has confirmed plans for a new acoustic album, and it will arrive in January, MTV reports.

There isn’t a tracklisting. There isn’t a title.

But you will love it and kiss it and dream of someday marrying it on a Mexican beach at sunset — even if it’s just 27 tracks of Biebz and his music supervisor Dan Kanter doing acoustic covers of C+C Music Factory.

Sadly, it probably won’t be anything like that.

Earlier this month, Bieber was Tweet-teasing his 31.4 million devout followers with talk of a new acoustic project. “Been writing alot…new stuff…and yeah. the acoustic album, new arrangements, is happening,” he wrote.

Hours ago, he kept up the tease. He shared a photo from inside a recording studio — one that just shows his cherry-red kicks. (Try to imagine him cradling a guitar, while simultaneously taking the shot.)

He also wrote this: “In the studio tonight working on the acoustic album…had some solid ping pong matches but… still,” he Tweeted. (In case you’re interested, he was playing against Nick Jonas. And in case you’re interested in what he was recording, Bieber retweeted a message from Kanter which suggests they’re re-arranging some of the kid’s pop hits: “So many songs to choose from. Which ones to you want to hear #acoustic???” Kanter wrote.)

Bieber will talk more about the project on Friday’s episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show. During the pre-taped interview, Bieber was quoted by MTV explaining why he enjoys putting an acoustic spin on his music.

“It’s something the fans really like,” Bieber told DeGeneres. “Because I started out on YouTube just playing my guitar, just singing without all the production, so I like to just put out acoustic albums. I think it’s more intimate.”

The 18-year-old pop star recently announced a new leg of North American tour dates. He’ll return to Canada with stops in Ottawa and Toronto in summer 2013.
